Muslims celebrate the holy fasting month of Ramadan with faith and introspection. They reflect on their deeds, examine their motives and refrain from doing evil and being self-absorbed and selfish. Ramadan is a time of giving and loving. May Allah bless the Muslim umma and may the true face of Islam, the religion of love and self-abnegation, be revealed. And, let the world forget terrorism, hatred and the clash of civilisations. Amen.
